Shakespearian Sonnet

I fell for you when I first met your eyes
I knew for sure that my parents were wrong
‘Twas you my heart would long for our demise
Was set in stone by feuds fought way too long.

We ran away in secret to be wed
Our life of married bliss begun with gore
Our final chance was this, the friar said
But even that was not to end the war

Nothing will break us apart from our love
The beasts, the air, the birds, their song do cease
God, disguised in humans, was content above
Bringing before my face the great increase

In Heaven of in Hell, we will be together
For god has given us a chance to sprout
And our lives will be spent forever
From day till night we will always be out
